Have to agree about Androids being a LOT different to Blade Runner - they're barely similar in some respects I'm certainly glad I saw the film first as that way the original story didn't jar with what you saw and they're both good, just completely different in approach.

Anyway - I went trad with my sci-fi vote and did H.G Wells as we owe so much to him

I voted Ursala Le Guinn for SF and Jack Vance for Fantasy one of my all time favorite authors, almost voted for William Heaney aka Graham Joyce as I have a copy of that but that was before I spotted Vance's Dying Earth.

He willnae tak' a drink! I think he's deid! , on the other hand though A Midgie in yir hand is worth twa up yir kilt.
